Safety conditions

Procedure

1. 1

   On the Console tab, acknowledge every open alert you have seen. Refer to Alerts – Respond to an alert (DMC-DLD-A-20-10-00-00A-130A-A).

2. 2

   Select the Shift handover tab. Read the Handover report. Check that it matches what you know of the shift.

3. 3

   In Notes for the next operator, write what the incoming operator needs to know. Include:

   • anything you are still investigating;

   • any alert you shelved, and why;

   • anything to check at a set time, such as a pass or a limit review.

   Note

   Notes are shared and saved as you type.

4. 4

   Type the incoming operator's call sign in Incoming operator.

5. 5

   If the team keeps handover reports elsewhere, select Copy and paste the report where it is needed.

   Note

   Do this before you sign. Signing clears the notes field.

6. 6

   Select Sign handover.

   Check that the message confirms the incoming operator is on duty.

   Note

   Signing writes a fingerprint of the report, your notes, both call signs and the number of unacknowledged alerts to the audit trail.

Requirements after job completion

• The incoming operator is shown as on duty, and the handover is signed in the audit trail.
